Reach Mentoring charity invitation to official launch evening in Magherafelt

Reach Mentoring, a local charity, in partnership with schools, journeys with young people for wide ranging reasons, including: self-worth, behavioural issues, anxiety, as well as various difficult life circumstances.

Big or small, long-term or short-term, Reach will provide a mentor to consistently sit alongside each young person on a weekly basis, in a safe and non-judgemental space. They are an early intervention service whose aim is to help young people unleash their potential.

Reach is about journeying alongside young people throughout life’s path and all of its twists and turns, highs and lows, the celebrations and disappointments it brings.

Until September 2025, Reach had been providing this support for 862 young people across 47 schools in six hub areas, including; Banbridge, Lurgan, Central Craigavon, Portadown, Armagh and Dungannon.
